All you need to know Guide to the Best Travel High Chair

A good travel high chair should be easy to carry around wherever you are going. They are designed to be really light and can easily be squeezed into a diaper bag or in the trunk of your car.

If you are planning to travel with your baby, portable high chairs can really come in handy. There are three types of portable high chairs. Check them out:

The Hook On Travel High Chair

These chairs are also known as table feeding chairs because they can easily be clamped to your dining table. A hook on travel chair can support up to 37lbs and it looks like this:

Advantages

Highly portable and can be stored away pretty easily

Is great to take with you while traveling

Disadvantages

Will most likely not fit all tables, which means that your baby will have to sit on your lap during that meal

Not good for older or heavier babies

Can damage certain table tops

The Fabric Travel High Chair

Fabric high chairs are made of polyester cloth that slides over a normal dining chair. It serves mostly to restrain the baby and to keep him safe from falling. It will not raise the baby up to the table height. All you need to do is clip your baby in. Here is how one of these fabric travel high chair looks and works:

Advantages

Machine washable

Can be easily folded to fit in a diaper bag

Disadvantages

Needs to be washed often

Doesn’t raise the child to the table height

The Standing Travel High Chair

A Standing travel high chair is more suited for outdoor use such as when camping out or even on days when the whole family is enjoying a meal on the lawn. It is sometimes even called a baby camping chair.

Here is how a good one looks:

Standing travel high chairs are built from heavy duty canvas that is mounted over a metal frame. There is no need to assemble a travel high chair and it can easily be folded into a narrow cylinder.

Because the design is quite simple, these chairs are highly durable and will not get affected by a little rain. This basically means that you don’t have to worry much about your travel high chair getting ruined due to outdoor use.

As compared to a regular high hair, the legs of a travel high chair stick out a little bit more for stability. Even if the ground below is uneven, your baby will get to enjoy a sturdy seat because of a wider base. You can obviously not replace a normal high chair with a travel high chair. Most of them are only good for occasional use because of the canvas tray that is not so reliable when the baby leans on it and takes more space because of the wide leg base. A solid tray is much better when using at home; otherwise you will end up with all the food on the ground.

Advantages

Resistant to weather, meaning that it is highly durable

The size is good enough to fit in the trunk of your car

Great for families who love camping our eating outside

Disadvantages

The canvas tray is quite messy

Not good for indoor use
